    GB going really well so far. Can they beat the 120 medals they got in 2012? Then they came 3rd with 34 Gold medals. Only 6 more Gold needed to equal that tally.

    Gordon Reid playing some incredible tennis to get to the wheelchair final where - fingers crossed - he'll meet his Wimbledon doubles-winning partner.

    Incredible how well GB are doing. Now up to 46 Gold and 100 medals in total.

    The wheelchair rugby has started. GB narrowly lost to Australia in their first game 53-51. I love the way they bash into each other. :)

    I forgot to bring some blind football highlights (we've not seen it on Channel 4 because GB isn't in it):



    It's pretty interesting to watch, that's from the first day of the blind football actually.
